    Compare Files

    Hello,
    recently the files of a customer were renamed and encrypted by a cryptolocker ransomware.

    To recover these files I wanted to use BC4 in folder-compare-mode with an alignment override, but i didn't got it working.
    One sample file name would be the following:
    unencrypted: abc.txt
    encrypted: abc.txt.id-F8C2FDE8.[[email protected]].wallet

    For future use it would be nice to know how to configure the alignment override correctly.
    Thanks in advance!

    To align these two files, the encrypted file has to be on the left side. Use Swap to make that side the Left base folder.

    Then go to the Session menu -> Session Settings, Misc tab (Pro feature), and create a New (+) Alignment Override.

    Define left as (.*).id-(.*)
    and Define right as $1
